and Mazda celebrated big anniversaries with two of their legendary names, and SRT threw out one more Viper to see if it finally sticks. From Autoweek, here’s some of the reveals from the show in the Big Apple.

Dodge

Slide 2 of 12

Dodge Charger and Challenger

Dodge used New York to pull out the redesigned 2015 Charger sedan. The new version gets redesigned headlights and grille, a new wheel package and a more rounded rear but with the same giant brake light. The 300-hp four door returns 31 mpg on the highway with help from an eight-speed transmission.

The new Challenger, at left, will get an upgraded Hemi V8 making 485 hp and 475 lb-ft with the Scat Pack option, though styling is basically unchanged. Transmission options include an eight-speed auto or a six-speed manual.

SRT Viper Anodized Carbon Special Edition

Finally, from the Pentastar-Fiat umbrella, there was the SRT Viper Anodized Carbon Special Edition. Only 50 examples will be made, only 10 of which get the Time Attack Group package.

Maserati

Slide 4 of 12

Maserati GranTurismo MC Centennial Edition

The GranTurismo MC Centennial Edition celebrates the company’s 100th anniversary, and will be offered in both coupe and convertible form. The 4.7-liter gets 10 more hp for a total of 454, top speed is pegged at 185 mph. It will only come in two colors, magma red and Inchiostro blue.

Infiniti

Slide 5 of 12

Infiniti Q70 and QX80

Nissan’s luxury arm displayed its Q70 sedan, left, and QX80 SUV in New York. The Q70 will get a long-wheelbase version, adding nearly 6 inches over the previous generation. The 330-hp V6 and 420-hp V8 continue. The QX80 gets a few design tweaks, but stays similar to last year’s model.

Volkswagen

boss Michael Horn said we’ll see the German bruiser, probably in W12 guise, in 2018 or 2019.

Mazda

Slide 7 of 12

Mazda MX-5

We really, really hoped to see an all-new Miata MX-5 in New York. It fit the cars 25th anniversary, and we heard the rumors, man. Sadly, all we saw was a naked piece of chassis, which we suppose looked promising. The company also teased us with a ton of classic Miata roadsters, which kept us from burning the whole place down in disgust.

Chevy Corvette Z06, Trax and Cruze

One of the biggest reveals, or at least the fastest, was this Z06 convertible. It promises 625 hp, all of the go-fast bits of the hardtop, and the entire universe for headroom. A seven-speed manual will be standard; a new eight-speed automatic is optional. We also saw the Trax, a small sport ‘ute for the eco-conscious. And the 2015 Cruze got a face-lift.

Land Rover

Slide 9 of 12

Land Rover Discovery

Land Rover brought back the Discovery name at the USS Enterprise Air and Space Museum in the form of the Discover Vision concept. The Discover Sport will arrive in 2016 taking the place of the LR models. The concept had a ton of future tech including hand gestures, voice control and reconfigurable seats.

Audi

Slide 10 of 12

Audi RS7 Dynamic Edition and A3 Sportback

Audi broke out another RS7, and this time it’s more “dynamic!” It gets a carbon fiber package, 21-inch gloss black wheels and painted calipers. The interior is upgraded too, but output stays at 560 hp. We also got our first look at the A3 Sportback, which hits all the right buttons on our wagon receptors in the brain.

Ford

Slide 11 of 12

Ford Mustang 50th anniversary

Ford drew the curtains on its 50th anniversary Mustang. The limited edition model will only be repeated 1,964 times, to celebrate the year it was born. It’ll get the fantastic Coyote motor, making 420 hp and 390 lb-ft of torque.

The 2014 New York auto show is expected to attract a range of production and concept cars. Check out more cars from Aston Martin, Toyota, Subaru, Mini, Cadillac and more at Autoweek.
